Hey guys, don't know if anyone has an insight, but I'm stumped. I'll do my usual cardio on the elliptical (maybe 20 minutes on a high resistance), sweat like a pig and then get off. About a minute later I get this insane pain right next to my left hip bone in my pelvic area that has me curled up on the floor for about 10 minutes. It's happened a few times, but not EVERY time. It's really annoying because then I feel like I have to take it easy for the rest of my workout. Is this some sort of odd muscle strain or something? After about 10 minutes of weird throbbing, it just 100% goes away.
i'm with gator80 on this , check it with your doc.
you don't say if you hop straight off the eliptical after going full on, or if you give yourself a couple of mins on it after to cool down a bit. could it be any relation to the 'sea legs' you get fom a treadmill? just a thought.
I don't 'cool down' on it all that much. I usually go full out, slow down, hop off and then pace around a bit to get my heart rate down. Once I start breathing normally again is when the pain just slowly comes on and stays for a bit. It's not quite a "clench" (like a charley horse, which I get all the time in my feet) but it's a strong constant pain.
And ehhh I don't exactly go to the doctor. Ever. lol
I worked out after I made that post, but only did half the cardio that I usually do, and the pain was only half as bad. It's just strange.
I must be on a different wavelength than youse guys because I have no idea what FF said!
sex is cardio exercise
i have sex with my lady
she is "the keeper of the cardio equipment"
- oh and her pelvis is................DUDE!! Are you kiddin me....hahahaha
This is my primary cardio source, so yes. I pretty much stick to my bedroom, which sucks, but that's the way it is. I'm not sure if I'd get the same thing with running.

Lol what does your bedroom have to do with this? Your eliptical is in your bedroom?
Anyways if the pain is that severe, I would stop the activity first and immediately. Especially since it is a recurring scenario.
You do alot of kickboxing right? Any pain when kicking or kneeing?

I said my bedroom because that's where I 100% work out. Yes the elliptical is in there. Meaning I don't go out running, or to a gym or any of that. So it's 100% from the elliptical. My job makes me speedwalk around for 8 hours a day, and I don't get it from that, so it's something to either do with the movement of the elliptical, or my heart rate being up.. ?
While I'm doing the actual movement, there is no pain. It's just after I finish and walk around for a bit that it flares up, and of course I don't do anything until it goes away.
No pain with kicking or kneeing so far.. Because I'm already on the floor in pain after the elliptical before I even get into that lol
So far possible reasons I have gotten:
Strained muscle
Depleted oxygen (like a cramp)
Not enough water
Linear Mode
